Bud Tierney Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Sorry about late inquiry; don't get into site regularly...Still have your problem??Didn't know there was more than one way to install: just bolt 'em in, but, then, we never tried commercial replacements, just cut/bored some out of pieces of old const/ag drive belting...Unless your driveline sadly misaligned, can only guess you using too light ones; an old catalog lists well over 40 different ones...How flexible are the ones you're using as replacements?? If NOS, they may've lain around so long they're dried and brittle, won't take torque/flex??Considered doubling up, using two if they seem flexible enough, if driveshaft splined enough to allow??Oh: 1927 series 50 what?? My catalog doesn't show any for Buick.Everyone loves a mystery... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
